CAN YOU NOT BATTERY PACK

I spent 20 dollars on a rechargable battery bank with a 2100 mAh battery.. for some odd reason it charges my iPhone up to full and then some... but when i plug it into my s5 it charges it for 1% and then stops working?? It has a built in led to show if it has power or not. It does NOT EVEN SHOW A LIGHT THERE EITHER???!?!?

BUT when i plug it into my iphone after 1 minute of recharging it it starts working again.... ;-; 

 

 

i read the packaging and it tells me "will only work with apple products"

 

 

TL:DR

can somebody explain why a charger from a different company than apple will only charge apple products?

;-;

OFF TOPIC: I suggest every poll from now on to have "**CK EA" option instead of "Other"
